About

TaKeTV has been established in 2010 by former WarCraft III pro gamer and ESL / GIGA host Dennis „TaKe“ Gehlen. What once started as a one-man company in a 55 sqm flat has quickly become one of the most prestigious broadcasters for international tournaments in StarCraft II, CS:GO, Heroes of the Storm and Hearthstone as well as daily coverage of all important tournaments.

Today TaKeTV’s staff consists of six permanent employees, two apprentices and various interns and freelancers.

TaKeTV is internationally well-known for hosting their very own tournaments and leagues such as Acer TeamStory Cup or SeatStory Cup. The most famous TaKeTV tournament, however, is HomeStory Cup that belongs to the most popular StarCraft II tournaments around the globe.

In 2014, HomeStory Cup celebrated its 10th edition with almost 1.5 million unique live views and 4,000 viewers on location.

Besides broadcasting, video production, textile printing / sale as well as works for partners belong to TaKeTV’s business segments.

The video production focuses on in-house video formats such as NarutO vs. TaKe as well as partner requests for NVIDIA, Red Bull or NEEDforSEAT®.

In addition, TaKeTV branded textiles are created by an in-house merchandise production and sold via the TaKeTV online shop.

With more than 10 million unique viewers per annum and 83 million total clicks on the live channel TaKeTV is a constantly growing brand that will move into a brand new, 2,000 smq location to provide the community with even more events and content in the future.
